Land registry offices
There is no central land register for the entire country. Instead, the cantons keep their records in their own land registers.
The cantons operate land registry offices and define the regions they cover. They are liable for any damages that may arise due to errors in the land register, and specify the arrangements for the cantonal supervision of the activities of the land register manager(s).
In some cantons there is only one land register, while others define land registers for several municipalities or even one per municipality.
